First Edition
Paperback. Condition: Very Good. First Paperback Edition. 8vo. pp [24]. Original publisher's white stapled covers, lettered black on the front cover. Sherlock Holmes parody/imitation. Very good.
Condition: Very Good. 8 closely typde fools pages, typed recto only, original manuscript with handwritten ink corrections in Lofts hand. About 3000 words. A fascinating survey from the point view of a collector with some historical detail. The last half dealing with book stalls. Many of the markets described have now gone inc the book stalls on Farringdon Road. W.O.G. Lofts (1923 Ð 1997) writer, researcher, collector and love rof juvenile literature. Very good. The article ends thus: ".Of course there are numerous other street markets in London. Portobello Road- that is mainly antiques, Hoxton market, Chapel Market at Islington. Well Street, Hackney, a well known one at Poplar, The Cut, Lower Marsh at the back of Waterloo Station had such a terrible reputation that the police had to walk in pairs almost up to the last War. A curious place called Clare Market* - near the London School of Economics - though there is nothing there at all today, and may have been a book market. Leather Lane that is a turning away from Hatton Garden that caters purely for the office workers in Holborn or the City. Farringdon Street book market that has now only about six stalls belonging to the same vendor. Exmouth market opposite Mount Pleasant Post Office. Most are pale imitations of what they used to be in pre-war days, but I have no doubt that many others could relate about their own favourite market place, as I have done, on those situated in dear old London Town." Very good.
